As competition reality series continue to dominate streaming and conversation, one show has pulled far ahead of the pack: The Traitors US. Each season features up to 23 contestants competing in a remote Scottish castle, where secret alliances, deception, and psychological tactics are the name of the game. And now, the hit series is looking for its next cast of contestants for its upcoming season, filming in 2026.

The Traitors US casting team seeks a mix of personalities that will bring their A-game to create drama, strategy, and humor on screen. Ideal contestants are distinctive, memorable, emotionally present and articulate, with the ability to navigate alliances and respond under pressure. If you can think on your feet, tell a good story and bring tension, humor, or unpredictability to the table, you might be exactly who the team is looking for.
Actors with strong personalities, emotional range and on-camera confidence are encouraged to apply.
How it works: A few players are chosen as ‘Traitors’ and tasked with sabotaging the group from within. The rest of the group are dubbed the ‘Faithfuls’ and tasked with determining who among them are the Traitors before they’re all eliminated. The group competes in daily challenges towards a $250,000 grand prize. At the end of daily missions, round tables are held where a vote is taken to eliminate one member.
The game rewards players who can read people, think on their feet, and stay cool under pressure. Production for The Traitors US 2026 is expected to begin in May or June of 2026 and last for up to four weeks.
